Since ancient times, potential of plants in research and medicine have found pronounced applications, due to better therapeutic value. To meet the mounting demands for commercial nanoparticles, novel eco-friendly methods of synthesis has led to a remarkable progress via unfolding a green synthesis protocol towards metallic nanoparticles synthesis. Nanotechnology on herbal constituents to tailoring for its potential benefits has been gained an imperative circumstance in recent times. Researchers are focused on the nanotizing the herbal proportions to render and take diversified advantages, as well as to precede futher explorations in the field.Nanophytomedicines are prepared from active phytoconstituents or standardized extracts. Nanotechnology has been considered to be a novel innovation of the period in different fields of science. The different types of nanocarriers that are used in cosmetics such as cubosomes, liposomes, hydrogels, dendrimes, nanoemulsions, nanocrystals, microemulsion, and solid lipid nanoparticles. These nanoparticles have benefits of higher stability, insolubility or bio-persistent, hyperpigmentation. This review on nanotechnology used in cosmetics draws special attention to different types of nanoparticles used in cosmetics and their characterization techniques.
